AGENDA/MINUTES

The agenda and Meeting Minutes from the 11/8/07 meeting were distributed to the attendees.  All approved of the 11/8/07 Meeting Minutes.

 

OLD BUSINESS

 

BUDGET

Poinsettia Fundraiser had a profit of $650.

 

SURPLUS OF T-SHIRTS

The surplus of gymnastic t-shirts was discussed.  There are approximately 100 t-shirts.  If we had a Fire Sale and sold the shirts for $5 each, we could make $500.

 

CAR PEELS

This could be an excellent fundraiser.  There is a huge variety of car peels to choose from, including all imaginable sports.  We do need 20 orders to be eligible for free shipping.  We need to send notices and examples of the car peels home with the gymnasts.

 

EAGLES MEET

Shanna is hoping for an Eagles Meet at EHS on either 5/3 or 5/24.  We will be able to use all the High School’s equipment, except for bars.  Volunteers will be needed for the following:  set-up, clean-up, concessions, ticket sales, computer data entry, awards, goodie gift bags, etc.  The Possibility of charging a $50 fine to those parents who do not volunteer was discussed.  Joy indicated that if conducted properly, we could make $1,000 on concessions.  We will have an emergency Booster Club Meeting prior to the Home Meet.

 

GOODIE BAGS FOR USAG

USAG will prepare goodie bags for the Boy’s Team.  The USAG Compulsory Team will prepare goodie bags for the Optionals Team.  Happy Dance website has great “goodies” for these bags.

 

FAMILY OUTING

We are still considering a pot-luck of some sort. 

 

GROCERY CERTIFICATES

The King Soopers Grocery Certificates are going well.  Remember, the cards do not expire and they can be used for groceries, fuel, Starbucks, etc.

 

PICTURES

Picture day is February 29th.  There are different time slots for individual teams.  The pictures will be less expensive than last year - $12 for 8x10.

 

 

NEW BUSINESS

 

BANQUET

After a discussion regarding whether to have 2 banquets or only 1, it was decided to keep the USAG and Eagles banquets separate.  The USAG banquet will probably be the end of April – tentatively at the Lake House on a Thursday evening.  We are open to catering suggestions for approximately 100 guests.

 

PRO-SHOP

Per Shanna, we are looking at starting up a Pro-Shop.  This would need to be run through the Booster Club.  The Shop would most likely be in the Gymnastics Office and would sell leotards, grips, wrist bands, water bottles, tape, etc. 

 

VIDEO EQUPMENT

Our current video camera is beyond repair.  We will be looking at purchasing a new video camera - the question is how to pay for it.  The possibility of using money obtained from future fundraisers was discussed.

 

SHOW FOR CHARITY

Although we would like to have a show for charity, funds are low right now.  After our Home Meet, we may have extra funds to put on this show.

 

COOKIE DOUGH

Once again, we will have a Cookie Dough Fundraiser.  We will start taking orders in early April, and delivery will be in May, prior to Mother’s Day. 

           

MISCELLANEOUS

GPA’s  – It was noted that gymnasts from EHS & Conifer HS have high GPA’s.

 

Osborne Athletics – The possibility of Osborne Athletics taking pictures at the Home Meet was discussed.

 

Balcony – The possibility of putting tables and chairs in the gym balcony for homework purposes was discussed.

 

P Bars – The gym now has regulation P Bars. 

 

NEXT MEETING
